    Hi, thats what I'm getting and each test I am expecting bad news??? But so far everyhting is going along well, I would say try not too worry but I know it' not possible, will talk more in the due date group I'm sure .... like the others say get BT done, it helps ease your mind for a day or two until you get another one done.that all will be okay.

    Thanks guys

    I really appreciate your responses. I have a Dr's appointment in the morning. Today things have been a bit worse, bright red watery blood a couple of times and also bright red blood in mucous. But it's pretty much only when I wipe and not alot. Just keeping my fingers and toes crossed. Will let you know. xx

    As hard as it might be, try not to stress out.

    As the other ladies here have said, to put your mind at ease a BT is your best way. All three of my pregnancies have had bleeding. During my first pregnancy I had early bleeding at about 8 weeks, and the second pregnancy at about 6 weeks. Everything turned out fine and lost them to different circumstances.

    I hope everything's okay and will be thinking of you!

    Starangelk, I had this exact thing with both pregs (and it wasn't the reason I lost Jayvan so don't panic!)
    Def keep those fingers and toes crossed but while it's so light with no cramps I would say that everything is ok. I'll be keeping my toes and fingers crossed too! xx

    Good luck with your appointment at the Dr's. I had spotting with both of my pregnancies at about 6-7 weeks and had bleeding with my second at 12 weeks, but I have both children.
    I remember being told from my DR that you can get spotting due to the egg implanting in the Uterus.

    Hopefully all is ok and your news is good.

    Good Luck

    Hi ladies -a massive THANK YOU for your support, I really really appreciate it. Went to the DR this morning who basically said I should prepare myself for the worst but to try and not worry. She said it doesn't sound good but it is possible that the bleeding is normal for "me" and I could go on to be okay. So she sent me for blood tests and has marked them urgent and I can ring and speak to her this afternoon to get the results. She said that if the test comes up negative then it is a miscarriage and I need to wait for the bleeding and still get a scan in a week or so to check everything has been flushed out. If the test is positive then I have to wait until next Monday (because Friday is a holiday here) and be restested. Then from the levels they can see what is going on.


    I think I am in denial because I still asked her about the OB referral because I am worried that they will get booked out and I will miss out! She said not to worry about that at all, she will make sure that doesn't happen and we need to deal with this first and then worry about that later. Makes me realise that she thinks it is not looking good and she did say that pretty clearly. I am making her sound horrible but actually she was lovely just straight to the point which I appreciate.

    that everything is okay. Feeling pretty sad and scared but still hopeful.

    I hope everything comes up good for you

    I too had spotting during my second pregnancy and it turned out fine. From week 8-18 if i remember correctly but it was only ever brown spotting never bright red.

    Best of luck hun
